No One Listen Lyrics - Working Man's Cafe - Ray Davies

Why is it difficult to get things done 

In the age of computers and communication? 

The powers that be say they can't keep a hold 

Of a world that is escalating out of control 

 

Out on the street there's a war going on 

And everything is going wild 

But a bureaucrat says, "We've lost your file 

So we'll put you on hold for a while" 

 

Hey man, call the D.A. 

Call the National Guard, call the president 

Call anyone in the land of the free 

'Cause they ain't gonna listen to me 

 

Call the P.D., the emergency ?vacuation 

The Dalai Lama, Kofi Annan 

And they ain't gonna listen to me 

 

The voice on the phone says, 'We'll get right back' 

But they say all the computers are down 

And the chief prosecutor had to go out of town 

No one listen, nobody listens, no one listens to me 

 

Now we've got you in the system 

Somebody's gonna get back to you 

Then in a few more years we'll give your case a review 

No one listen, nobody listens, they ain't gonna listen to me 

 

Hey man, call the Government 

Write to City Hall, United Nations 

Tell the preacher at the missionary 

'Cause they ain't gonna listen to me 

 

Blame the hurricane, blame the drug trade, the economy 

Blame the ghettos in the land of the free 

'Cause they ain't gonna listen to me 

They ain't gonna listen to me 

 

Everybody knows it's a cryin' shame 

How the little guy gets kicked around 

Everybody I talk to agrees that if you wanna get heard 

It's connections that count 

 

I was minding my business 

When a bad situation occurred, shock, horror and fear 

Now the outcome is still unclear 

Hey man, I am the innocent party here 

They ain't gonna listen to me 

 

Tell the National Guard 

Tell the talk show on the TV 

Tell the winos in the old man bar 

?Cause they ain't gonna listen to me 

 

Now I'm stuck here in their system 

They ain't gonna listen, nobody listens 

They ain't gonna listen to me
